Two Idiots in Hollywood

True- The first time you see this movie, you aren't really sure what hit you, that is if anything hit you at all. What I recommend is that you consider the title of the movie before you watch it and you won't be disappointed. This movie was actually very clever and took a great deal of intelligence to write and put together. Simply put, it is an over the top satire about the excesses of the Hollywood and the people running it. It follows two mopes from Ohio, Murhpy Wagg and Taylor Dup (with one "p") who go to California on a whim, like some many other people to find jobs in the Motion Picture Industry. The ideas that they (the movies characters) come up with aren't too far off from other movies being made nowadays, that is where the real comedy and genius of this picture are. Hollywood executives, big and small, giving us one rotten movie only to sell us another one, a sequel, or some other garbage franchise that might be derived from it. Stephen Tobolowsky showed a great deal of courage, and creativity, to create a movie like this. I understand why so many would turn their backs on it, because it hits so close to the truth. I only hope that we can get more movies like this one.

or should i say "a t. barry armstrong masterpiece?" Yeah, this movie is dumb. but it's worth it. basically this is the funniest movie ever. period.

I couldn't disagree much stronger with the sentiment of old zogmorph's review of this movie. I guess it's one of those films that you either love or truly hate.

It's not the most sophisticated of premises, I'll give you that much: a chief guiding principle of the film, for example, is that the protagonists, and even inanimate objects, must send themselves up at almost every opportunity. How many scenes are interrupted by problems with the set, passers by getting in the way, and loud police sirens drowning out the diction? But it really works for me. Similarly, a lot of the humour is pretty childish: there's a character called Loupenis Jones! But it's all good good good as far as I'm concerned. I ask you: Loupenis, hahahaha.

But. You don't understand. When the moon is full...

If you don't know what comes next you need to see the hit film TWO IDIOTS IN Hollywood.

I caught this movie as part of a pre-release audience focus group. And this was the only time I've ever seen or heard of a mass audience walk-out on a free screening and forego the $50 focus group fee. it was THAT bad. Audience members were pushing pollsters aside on their way out, others could be seen to be writing profanities in big block letters on their questionnaires.

This was one of those movies that deliberately strives to be bad through self-mockery, but it didn't even succeed at campiness. Not funny-bad, just painfully, excruciatingly, AWFUL.

If these other reviews are to be believed, the movie must have been re-written, re-filmed, re-edited and re-tooled beyond recognition.

The first time I saw this movie, my mom rented it for me back in 1993. Up until recently I had forgotten about the movie completely. I spent 3 months searching every video store in the area and coming up with nothing, then my friend found a copy on half.com and I was in business. This movie is so funny, completely random. The songs, the wolfman impressions, the amazing robot from outer space. My favorite song from the movie is "big men, big women". I cannot count the numbers of quotes from this movie. It may not be a masterpiece, but it will make you laugh your head off. If you can't laugh at this movie, then you are a cold heartless moron. But you don't understand, when the moon is full...I become a WOLF!
